The Maestre lab at INTECOL 2013

In a few
days the INTECOL 2013 conference, organised by the British Ecological Society as part of its 100th anniversary, will
take, and the Maestre lab will be quite busy there. Fernando will be talking on
biotic and abiotic controls on ecosystem multifunctionality in drylands within the
symposium Biodiversity ecosystem services and multifunctional landscapes at
16:00 on Thursday, and will be also giving talks in two workshops: How to get
your research funded: some personal perspectives (Tuesday at lunch time) and Writing
and publishing scientific papers if English is not your first language (Wednesday
at lunch time). Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo will be talking about how aridity
affects carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in global drylands on Monday at
11.15 (Ecosystem ecology and dynamics session). Enrique Valencia will present a
poster on Monday on his work on aridity and functional traits as determinants
of ecosystem multifunctionality of Mediterranean grasslands and shrublands (Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning
session, 17:45-19:45). Also, our former graduate student Pablo García-Palacios
will present results from a meta-analysis on soil fauna effects on litter
decomposition on Monday at 12:45 (Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning
session). You can find more information about this, and everything else that is
happening on the INTECOL App.

So if you are in the conference and want to see
some of our latest stuff you know where we will be. If you would like also to
chat to any of us we will be around until Thursday there, so look for us!
